A charter bus is a large motorcoach designed to transport medium-to-large groups over long distances. These buses typically seat 40-56 passengers and come equipped with amenities like cushioned seats, air conditioning, WiFi, power outlets, TVs, DVD players, restrooms, and ample storage space. Charter buses are ideal for school field trips to the Discovery Cube, corporate outings to Disneyland Resort, wedding shuttles between hotels and venues, sports team transportation to games at Angel Stadium, and more.

A minibus is a smaller version of a charter bus that usually seats between 15 and 35 passengers. Minibuses are perfect for shorter trips around town or transporting smaller groups who don’t need a full-size coach. Common uses include hotel shuttles to Knott’s Berry Farm, church group outings to Crystal Cathedral, airport transfers to LAX or John Wayne Airport, and private party transportation to Downtown Fullerton bars. Despite their smaller size, many minibuses still offer great amenities like reclining seats, AC, WiFi, and overhead storage.

Charter buses typically have between 40 and 56 seats depending on the make and model. For example, a standard MCI J4500 seats 56 passengers while a Prevost H3-45 holds up to 55. Smaller models like the Temsa TS 35E seat around 40. When booking your bus, let us know how many people you need to transport so we can match you with a vehicle that has enough seating for everyone in your group.

Minibuses generally seat anywhere from 15 to 35 passengers.

Many vehicles also offer free WiFi, power outlets or USB ports at every seat, flat-screen TVs with DVD players, Bluetooth sound systems, onboard restrooms, and large luggage bays.

Yes! Most of our buses are equipped with either an AUX input, Bluetooth connectivity, or both so you can play your own playlists through the bus’s sound system. This is perfect for keeping the energy up on the way to a concert at FivePoint Amphitheatre or setting the mood for a wedding shuttle. Just let us know if this feature is important to you and we’ll make sure your bus has it.

Full-size charter buses have the most storage with large undercarriage bays that can hold multiple suitcases per passenger plus overhead racks inside for smaller bags. Minibuses usually have limited luggage space either in rear compartments or overhead shelves suitable for backpacks and carry-ons. Party buses prioritize open floor plans over storage but can still accommodate some personal items. If your group has a lot of gear—like band equipment for a gig at House of Blues Anaheim or sports coolers for a tournament—please mention this when booking so we can recommend a suitable vehicle.

Absolutely! We can provide ADA-accessible buses equipped with wheelchair lifts, wider aisles, designated securement areas, and accessible restrooms. These features are available on both full-size charter buses and certain minibus models. If anyone in your group requires ADA accommodations, please let us know when requesting a quote so we can ensure your vehicle meets all accessibility needs.

Yes, you can wrap your charter bus with custom graphics for advertising, branding, or special events. Bus wraps are popular for political campaigns, corporate sponsorships, movie productions, and festival shuttles. We’ve helped clients wrap buses for major events like NAMM at the Anaheim Convention Center and Comic-Con shuttles from Disneyland hotels. Please note that wrapping requires advance notice and additional fees for installation/removal.

We will always do our best to accommodate requests for specific bus models or colors such as black, white, navy blue, etc. While availability may vary based on date and location, we have one of the largest fleets in Southern California so chances are good we can provide exactly what you’re looking for. Just let us know your preferences when booking!

The cost of renting a charter bus in Buena Park depends on several factors including distance traveled, duration of trip, time of year, and amenities requested. On average, expect to pay between $150-$300 per hour or $1,200-$2,500 per day for a standard 56-passenger bus. For example, a round-trip from Buena Park High School to Universal Studios Hollywood might run around $1,800 while an overnight excursion to Las Vegas could be closer to $4,000. To get an exact price tailored to your itinerary, call us anytime for an instant quote.

Minibus rentals are generally more affordable than full-size coaches with rates ranging from $125-$225 per hour or $900-$1,800 per day depending on size and features. A typical use case would be shuttling employees between Metrolink stations and office parks which might cost $1,200 for an 8-hour shift. As always, the best way to find out is to contact us with your details so we can provide a customized quote.

Several variables influence the final price including: total mileage, number of hours or days, size/capacity of the vehicle, level of amenities (WiFi, restroom, leather seats), seasonality (peak months like summer or holidays may be higher), and any special requests such as ADA accessibility or custom wraps. Longer trips that require overnight stays will also incur additional costs for driver lodging. Providing a detailed itinerary upfront helps us give you the most accurate estimate possible.

Your quote covers the base rental fee for the bus, driver’s wages, fuel, insurance, and standard amenities onboard. It does NOT include gratuity for the driver (typically 10-20% recommended), parking/toll fees en route, or optional extras like bottled water/snacks. If your trip involves multiple days out of town, you’ll need to budget for hotel accommodations for the driver as well.

We recommend booking your bus as early as possible—ideally 3-6 months ahead for large events during busy seasons (spring break, summer vacations, December holidays). For smaller groups or off-peak travel, 4-6 weeks’ notice is usually sufficient. Last-minute bookings are sometimes available but selection may be limited especially for specialty vehicles.

Yes, we offer flexible packages to suit any travel plan including one-way transfers (e.g., airport drop-off), round-trip service (e.g., wedding shuttle looping between hotel and venue), and multi-day charters (e.g., school band competition in San Diego with overnight stay). You can customize pickup/dropoff times and locations according to your schedule.

Absolutely! Our buses regularly travel interstate to destinations such as Las Vegas NV, Phoenix AZ, San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento, Fresno, and even farther if needed. Whether it’s a casino run, college tour, or corporate retreat, we’ll get you there safely and comfortably.

If your itinerary requires the driver to be away from home overnight (typically anything over 8-10 hours round trip), then yes, you are responsible for providing a separate hotel room for them. Most clients book a room at the same property where the group is staying for convenience. Drivers cannot sleep onboard the bus due to safety regulations.

Getting a quote is quick and easy! Simply call us at 657-663-2980 or fill out the online form with your trip details: date(s), pickup/dropoff addresses, headcount, and any special requirements.
